Recognising excellence across a range of award categories, Chant West鈥檚 Super Fund Awards shine a spotlight on best practice in the super industry.

The Super Fund of the Year award focuses on the experience of a typical member in the accumulation phase with a default MySuper fund, while the Pension Fund of the Year award relates to a typical retiree member. Both awards recognise excellence across a range of key criteria such as investments, member services, fees, insurance and organisational strengths.

The award for Best Fund: Investments focuses on each fund鈥檚 MySuper investments covering age-based lifecycle structure, investment processes and resources, and their capacity to deliver strong returns, while the Best Fund: Insurance award assesses the value provided for premiums paid and how funds make it easy to get the right amount of cover and to make a claim.

鈥淓ach of these awards underscores the strides we鈥檙e making on behalf of our members as we help them prepare for, enter and enjoy their best possible retirement,鈥 Ms Stewart said. 鈥淲ith that said, we鈥檒l never rest.
